Work Day No. 1

My very first day of work and it was raining heavily when i reached the mall.
I was kind of drenched and i had to wait around for this lady to find the guy who hired me. I forgot to get his name, how silly of me. So all i could do was say 'hi, i'm supposed to start working today'

I finally see the guy and i go back around the counter.
Again i have to wait really long, he writes down our phone numbers and sets up this high tech fingerprint checking into work system.

We also have to say what out shirt size is... i said either M or L. The female M was so small!
And i'm sure that if i got L my stomach could be seen.
So in the end i have two XXL shirts and i still feel like its a bit small.

We finally get to do our job 30 mins later.
My position for the day was to be an usher, i wore white gloves and gave out 3D glasses, held the heavy black curtain to let people into the theatre. I ushered people out of the hall and got to watch the end of Narnia, My soul to take and a Korean Horror show.

I made three new friends, all guys who are a year younger than me.

I also have this annoying indian boss, he reprimanded me, telling me not to touch my hair while wearing the nasty gloves.

I'm hoping i get to make popcorn today.
Ushering is ok and all, but you are standing and walking and having to talk so much.
You have to repeat have and nice day and enjoy your movie like a hundred times an hour.

Also i saw Sharmanie! It was kind of embarrassing, its so awkward considering that i have not seen her in a long time.

I think i would  get sick of the theatre soon, that will be a sad day, getting sick of going to the movies.
